Last February we reached out and requested that Parks clear several downed trees along the hiking trail behind Twin Lakes for our run group route. Parks came out within a couple days and cleared all of the downed trees including one huge one. I don't think I sent anything at the time but just wanted to give everyone a huge thank you for doing that for us - it helped so much. Everyone in our run group really appreciated the responsiveness and efforts from parks staff. Thank you so much!

I have been meaning to submit this for years. At the toddler (upper) Bryan Park playground there is a digger that is entirely inappropriate for the age group. It's too tall, too heavy, too difficult to use for really any kid under the age of 10. My toddler son desperately wants to play with it and has gotten injured or come close to injury numerous times in his attempts. It has very heavy metal arms and it spins so he has had other kids spin it into him... it's shouldn't be on this playground. It would be great if it could be replaced with a smaller one the size of the ones at the lower playground... OR even smaller would be even better as even the lower playground ones are hard for the 2-3 year old age range. The kids definitely WANT a digger... just one they can actually use. Thanks!

Whoever installed the StoryWalk at Butler (9th St.) Park left two piles of leftover concrete on either side of the paved trail, at the northwest corner. They are a few cubic feet each and have again disappeared into the undergrowth.

Water fountain near NE corner of Showers Bldg has not been turned on this year. Additionally, the fountain near the flag pole hasn't worked for years. Water is important for people (and dogs) doing their bit for health and public engagement. If we can't have water, announce a policy and remove the fountains.

One of the two infant swings is broken in Schmalz Farm Park. The broken swing is unsafe and has very sharp edges for little children. Hopefully the swing can be replaced before long.

Many of humans at the Ferguson Dog Park do not know how to use the T-valve to turn on the water, or that spray will cool and clean their dog.
Please post instructions, or use a magic marker to point the way.
